Battle Of Ideas Quotes

What I believe is important is that we win the battle of ideas Picture Quote #1

In a battle between two ideas, the best one doesn’t necessarily win. No, the idea that wins is the one with the most fearless heretic behind it Picture Quote #1

We cannot change ideas in the minds of men and races with machine guns or battle ships Picture Quote #1

I know that in the battle of ideas, Republican politicians are at a distinct disadvantage. Their fundamental philosophy - which I characterize as survival of the fittest, richest and whitest - is too callous for most Americans Picture Quote #1

Too often, the idea seemed to be that the cost of being part of Europe was being less like Britain. So after years of fighting to defend Europe against attacks from the Eurosceptic right, it would be fatal to retreat into the same arguments and begin the battle anew Picture Quote #1

The idea that women are innately gentle is a fantasy, and a historically recent one. Kali, the Hindu goddess of destruction, is depicted as wreathed in male human skulls; the cruel entertainments of the Romans drew audiences as female as they were male; Boudicca led her British troops bloodily into battle Picture Quote #1

Nigerian politics has been, since the military dictatorships, largely non-ideological. Rather than a battle of ideas, it is about who can pump in the most money and buy the most access Picture Quote #1

We may like to think politics is a battle of ideas and that the best idea wins out. But that’s not true in most elections. Most elections are about the worst ideas losing, not the best ideas winning Picture Quote #1

I am not one who, to quote an American author, believes that democracy and enterprise have finally won the battle of ideas - that we have therefore arrived at the end of history, and there is nothing left to fight for. That would be unutterably complacent, indeed foolish. There will always be threats to freedom, not only from frontal assaults, but more insidiously by erosion from within Picture Quote #1

The idea of collaborating with anyone else was quite daunting. If Battles had any trepidation in asking me, I can assure you I had more after agreeing to do it Picture Quote #1

When we’ve been bold on the Bank of England, on PFI, on great constitutional change, on the New Deal, we’ve been most successful. So what we have to continue to try and do is to battle with ideas and find new ways of applying those values as the world changes Picture Quote #1

Most ideas never happen. It’s an uphill battle against the status quo and our own tendencies Picture Quote #1

One column of truth cannot hold an institution of ideas from falling into ignorance. It is wiser that a person of prudence and purpose save his strength for battles that can be won Picture Quote #1

I tried to take seriously the idea that if you tortured language you might arrive at some new truth. Later it became clear to me that I was retreading ground by fighting the literary battles of the 1950s and 1960s, and that I was actually a bit bored by some of the books I professed to love Picture Quote #1

Our culture is just a series of checks and balances. The whole idea that we're in a battle between tyranny and freedom - it's a series of pendulum swings Picture Quote #1

Chess can never reach its height by following in the path of science... Let us, therefore, make a new effort and with the help of our imagination turn the struggle of technique into a battle of ideas Picture Quote #1

I love the idea that magic and witchcraft and battles between supernatural creatures could be raging all around us but just out of our sight Picture Quote #1

I say to those opposite: we intend to prevail in this battle of ideas, on the ground, right through to the next election. We intend to prevail Picture Quote #1
